A Texas corporation is the new owner of the former federal building in Cape Girardeau.

The Southeast Missourian reports that RDRH Holdings Inc., based in Austin, Texas, closed the purchase Tuesday.  Company President Majid Hemmasi says RDRH has bought government surplus property in the past. He says he would be interested in leasing or reselling the property to an entity in either the private or public sector. The old federal building sold for $325,015.

The building became obsolete when a new federal courthouse opened in Cape Girardeau.
